Antonio is biased

The impression i get of antonio is that he is biased, prejudice towards jews and open ended to christians. This can be seen from how how he calls shylock a "misbeliever, cut-throat dog and spit upon his Jewish gaberdine". And when Bassanio needed money to woo Portia, Antonio said that "my purse, my person, my extremest means lie all unlocked to your occasions", even though all his fortunes are out at sea.Hence i can conclude that antonio is biased.

The quote will be from 1.1, "thou know'st that all my fortunes are at sea;neither have I money,nor commodity,to raise a present sum. Therefore I go forth-try what my credit can in Venice do. That shall be racked even to the uttermost to furnish thee to Belmont to fair Portia".y

Question 2:

Bias

My impression of Antonio is that he is bias. The way he treated the Jews was spiteful and prejudice. This is evident from "Signior Antonio,...you call me misbeliever, cut-throat dog, and spit upon my jewish gaberdine, and all for use of that which is mine own". But he is generous and warm to Bassanio and his friends as he forgave Bassanio's debt to him and instead of confiscating Shylock's wealth, he suggested that Shylock be forced to convert to Christianity and bequeath his wealth to Jessica and Lorenzo. This is evident from " Sweet Bassanio , my ships have all miscarried...If your love do not persuade you to come, let not my letter" and "To quit the fine for one half of his goods,...Here in court of all he dies possessed, Unto his son Lorenzo and his daughter" This shows how generous and warm he is to his friends and not to Shylock. Hence, my impression of Antonio is that he is bias based on his difference on the way he treats his friends and Shylock.

1. "Signior Antonio,...you call me misbeliever, cut-throat dog, and spit upon my jewish gaberdine, and all for use of that which is mine own" (1.3)

Which shows that he is biased against the Jews, treating them badly and hating them. Also, he treats his friends nicely, this is evident from: "Generous and warm to Bassanii abd his friends" , "Forgives Bassanio's debt to him." Which clearly shows that he treats Jews and Christians totally oppositely. He is totally treats Jews badly. Which shows that he is biased.

Honourable

I get the impression that Antonio is an honourable character. Antonio is ready to fulfill the bargain he entered into to help Bassanio. "The Duke cannot deny the course of the law," he says. And later, he adds that he is "arm'd , with a quietness of spirit . . . For if the Jew do cut but deep enough, / I'll pay it presently with all my heart.". This shows that he is honorable as he not only allows Shylock to collect what is rightfully stated in the deal.

Question 1) materialistic friendship

BASSANIO To you, Antonio, I owe the most in money and in love, And from your love I have a warranty To unburden all my plots and purposes How to get clear of all the debts I owe. (1.1.137-141) Bassanio says he's sharing with Antonio because they're friends, but he makes explicit that he owes Antonio the most in "money and love." This hints that friendship might mean a different thing for Bassanio than it does for Antonio. Bassanio might just be working on Antonio's affection in order to keep his purse strings open. ANTONIO I pray you, good Bassanio, let me know it; And if it stand, as you yourself still do, Within the eye of honor, be assured My purse, my person, my extremest means Lie all unlocked to your occasions. (1.1.142-146) Antonio is willing to do anything to help his friend, including loaning him the money to woo Portia. What's interesting is that Antonio says that it's not just his "purse" that's "unlock'd" for Bassanio's use; he is also making his entire "person" available.

Thus this shows that Antonio cares deeply for Bassanio in a manner that exceeds that of a border of friendship however Bassanio does not feel that way and seems to be only using Antonio for his money clearly not returning Antonio's feelings towards him and not as devoted towards their friendship as not Antonio would have. In conclusion I can infer that their friendship seems to be one sided with Antonio devoting more into this relationship than Bassanio
